Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is launching on PlayStation 4 and PS4 Pro later this summer, but it appears it won’t be a permanent exclusive as many originally believed.

The game’s release date was recently announced on the PlayStation Blog as June 30th, 2017, coming to PlayStation 4 and PS4 Pro. PlayStation Ireland later tweeted out that the game would not be multiplatform, leading to some confusion among fans. In an attempt to get everyone on the same page, the same Twitter account followed up with a comment claiming that the game will be coming to PlayStation 4 and PS4 Pro “first.”

will launch on 30th June 2017. To clarify our earlier post, it will be coming to PlayStation 4 and PS4 Pro first.

Unfortunately, this answer has also raised more questions. The tweet implies that Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy will be a timed exclusive on the PlayStation 4/Pro, but it doesn’t clarify if the game will later launch on PlayStation 3 or Vita—unlikely options that would nevertheless still make it a PlayStation exclusive—or if it will later branch out to Xbox One and PC as well. There is also no mention of how long the game would be a timed exclusive.
